I'm not opposed to the term "sticky baby," but asking for your sticky vibes just sounded too weird. ![]()
I got a BFP this morning at 11DPO (my LP is usually 10-12 days). I am really excited and hoping this one sticks. I am trying not to dwell too much on the "what if it happens again" thoughts and just enjoy being pregnant, however long it lasts. I already had an appointment with my OB this Thursday to discuss fertility testing and plans moving forward, but I hope we'll be talking about my pregnancy instead!
What we did: sex EOD in my fertile window.
Symptoms: breast tenderness/fullness since O day. Acne right after O that cleared up quickly (usually I break out from after O until AF).
How I told DH: He asked me to tell him whenever I'm testing, so I told him yesterday that if my temp was still up today I'd take a test. The furbabies woke us up early, and my temp was up, so I PIAC. DH blinked a couple times and saw me staring at the clock. I went in and saw a super super faint pink line - I had to stare at it for a good minute to make sure. I crawled back into bed and whispered DH's nickname a couple times, and he hugged me and said, "That's good news [my nickname]." I laughed and burst into tears. ![]()
Thank you so much to everyone for all of your advice, wisdom, commiseration, and entertainment. I have learned so much from this board and it has been so comforting to know that I have a place I can ask almost any question and get good answers. You ladies are amazing and I am forever grateful to you. I hope you all get your take-home babies soon.
